Membership disabled

About once every couple of weeks, I get a message from the list that my
membership has been disabled because of excessive bounces.  Is anyone else
getting these?

Enabling membership is simple as there's a link in the email to do it.

I believe this is caused by something that was discussed a couple of months
ago regarding AOL and Yahoo's configuration of DMARC which causes emails
sent to my email address by the list from anyone who uses those hosts to be
bounced in certain circumstances (I'm not sure what those circumstances
are).  Consequently, I never see list postings from anyone who uses Yahoo
or AOL as their email host.

The email that list postings are sent to is pete at lcsql.com but I use gMail
as my email reader and it is set up to use POP3 to collect emails from that
address.  I also have a gmail filter that puts all emails from the list
into a specific folder within gMail.

Can anyone shed any light on this?  In particular, is there some other way
I can set things up that would avoid this problem?

I have notified Heather os this but there doesn't seem to be anything that
can be done at the list level to fix the problem.
